| Adorable Mary Jane straps give these felted slippers the charm of the classic girl's shoe style. A pair of these felted house shoes makes a great gift is perfect for chilly winter mornings and curling up under a warm afghan as you knit or crochet. |

Felted Mary Jane Scuffs
Lion Brand® Fishermen's Wool®
GAUGE: 15 sts + 19 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) in St st worked in rnds (k every rnd), before felting. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.
STITCH EXPLANATION: kfb (knit into front and then back)
An increase worked as follows:
1. Knit the next st through the front loop, but do not remove the st from your left hand needle.
2. Knit the same st once more, this time inserting your needle through the back loop of the st. You will have created 2 loops (sts) on your right hand needle.
3. Drop the st from your left hand needle - you have increased 1 st. |
NOTES: 1. Sole is worked back and forth in Garter st (k every row).
2. Sts for the sides are picked up along one side of the sole, the cast-on edge, and then along the opposite side of the sole. The sides are then worked in rnds.
3. The heel and sides are worked in Garter st worked in rnds (k 1 rnd, p 1 rnd). The toe is worked in St st worked in rnds (k every rnd).
4. When knitting in the round on dpn, your sts do need to be divided fairly evenly onto the needles. If you are working with a set of 5 dpn, your sts should be divided among 4 needles. The total number of sts will not always be evenly divisible by the number of dpns that you are using - this is not a problem! Simply divide your sts as evenly as possible, you will still create a symmetrical 'tube' of knitting.

Cut Strap in half to make 2 lengths. With sewing needle and thread, sew cut end of one Strap half to bound-off edge of Scuff just above toe. Rep with second half of Strap having cut end of Strap at opposite side of second Scuff. Sewn ends of Straps should both be at inside edge of foot.
For buttonhole, cut a small slit on unsewn end of Strap, about 1/2 in. (1.5 cm) from end. Sew button to Scuff opposite buttonhole. Rep for other Scuff. |

| Felted Mary Jane Scuffs Reviewed by ERCzaplewski on 2013-03-26 |

Great pattern!
I had to felt them in the dryer as well as the washer to get them small enough (I made a large) and they are still a bit long for me (I wear a woman's 10 or 11 shoe size).
Turned out warm and cute:)
Will definitely be working with Fisherman's Wool again!
**NOTE**
It took less than a quarter of the skein of wool to make these!
